Dynamis Update Petition.

[Alhanelem]

I don't fully agree with this update, I would have much rathered if they made the zones act the same as BC zones, Assaults, etc

This would have been ideal, but it is impossible due to the physical design of the area and how "instancing" (It's not really instancing but gives a similar result) works in FFXI. I can explain it if you want but probably best to do so in another thread.

Basically, it's much easier for them to just change how the monsters appear in the zone and such, and change the items for entry and how they're obtained, than to actually re-make the zones so that they could apply pseudo-instancing.

If things are explained in more detail I may reconsider...but the way things are listed right now, I'm not cool with it. Sounds to me like I may not be doing dyna much after the update. Right now when I make it to dyna, I like my paydays....they're much welcomed.

Doing dynamis just for gil is stupid. Relics cost enough time as it is without also costing 100s of millions of gil due to greedy people jacking currency prices. You can make gill just easily if not easier by rading the augmented item chests in Abyssea. One session in Konschtat I got 4 dark rings with crappy augments that NPC for 34k each. 136k for minimal effort.

Of course, currency prices probably won't drop that much, and you can get 7 "paydays" a week. So i'm not sure what you're complaining about.

Most who had relic weapon - leader who collect other person did not get cause 85% no one get relic weapon upgrade most leader had already relic weapon complete. no one collect from relic cause group not happy not get coin!!! I like idea like point as abyssea no complian!!! can buy upgrade relic drop earn coin to each people drop in count it. No long holder collect!

We can't all play 7 days a week? And I do farm in abyssea, that doesn't mean I'm swimming in gil either.

The LS does certain runs and lets members sponsor...but we also do runs where we sell the currency (at going rate b/c we're not all greedy pricks) and split among the members that came. It's a little way of giving back to the members.

So you assuming that we're raising prices on the currency is stupid. Thanks for automatically assuming my linkshell consists of a bunch of elitist ***holes, our ego will enjoy it.

You do realize that you'd probably make more money farming Tiger King hides and other pops in abyssea?

Also people need to stop fearing change. The game is going to change or it's going to die which do you prefer?

[Savannah]

Again, I do farm in abyssea.

I'm not gonna spend every day in abyssea....that's absurd and repetitive. I have yet, other than "people won't be fighting for dynamis zones", seen any good reason as to why dynamis needs to be changed.

Just sayin~

Uhm, I believe he was talking about the current prices in general. The cost of things has remained the same for the last few years, even when money started dropping from campaign, which is a sign in general that the price of currency has been "jacked up." I mean, if I put stuff up for 500 gil less than the going rate, people buy it and mark it up that 500 gil, it's silly.

As to good reasons for the change, how about doing Dynamis, upon Dynamis, upon Dynamis and not getting any gear you actually want because people who don't have a life outside of the game hitting every event and having a ridiculous number of points so they just always outbid everyone? How about people who want to earn a relic on their own without either forming a LS or spending all the time they have farming to get the gil to buy currency?
